Surgical navigation system with distributed patient reference tracking

A non-rigid anatomy reference system (100) can include two or more reference markers (110) that are rigidly attachable to separate bodies of rigid tissue (102) in a region of a patient (174) to form a marker array. The separate bodies of rigid tissue can be connected through flexible tissue. A track...

Zusammenfassung:A non-rigid anatomy reference system (100) can include two or more reference markers (110) that are rigidly attachable to separate bodies of rigid tissue (102) in a region of a patient (174) to form a marker array. The separate bodies of rigid tissue can be connected through flexible tissue. A tracking system (130) can be configured to acquire movement data of the two or more reference markers (110) as a function of time and position.
